The Erie County Health Department (ECHD) and Erie County Community Health Center (ECCHC) are thrilled to bring you another 2 Minute Health Break! This week, we’re making a splash by highlighting an incredible community resource and a fantastic new opportunity for fitness: the Sandusky Aquatics Center (SAC).

A Partnership for Community Well-being

The Sandusky Aquatics Center is a shining example of community collaboration. This state-of-the-art facility is the result of a strong partnership between the Erie County Health Department and Sandusky City Schools. Our shared goal is to provide accessible resources that promote health and well-being for all residents of Sandusky and Erie County. The SAC offers a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for swimming, recreation, and now, specialized fitness classes.

Make a Splash with Water Aerobics in Erie County!

We’re excited to announce that the Sandusky Aquatics Center is now offering twice-weekly water aerobics classes! If you’ve been looking for a fun, effective, and joint-friendly way to exercise, water aerobics might be just what you need.

What are the benefits of water aerobics?

  • Low Impact: The buoyancy of the water reduces stress on your joints, making it ideal for individuals with arthritis, recovering from injuries, or those looking for a gentler workout.
  • Full-Body Workout: Water provides natural resistance, engaging multiple muscle groups simultaneously for a comprehensive workout.
  • Improved Cardiovascular Health: Water aerobics can elevate your heart rate, strengthening your cardiovascular system.
  • Increased Flexibility and Range of Motion: The fluid movements in water can help improve your flexibility and mobility.
  • Stress Relief: Exercise in water can be incredibly relaxing and a great way to de-stress.
  • Suitable for All Fitness Levels: Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced exerciser, water aerobics can be modified to suit your needs.

How to Join

Ready to dive in? The water aerobics classes are held twice a week at the Sandusky Aquatics Center. We encourage you to check the SAC’s official schedule for specific class times and any registration information. This is a fantastic opportunity to improve your health, meet new people, and have fun in a supportive environment.
